About: As long as I can remember I've been an animal lover. I grew up riding horses, working on farms, + living with no less than 3 dogs at a time in my house. As a kid I dreamed of being a veterinarian. I took in all sorts of animals that needed to be nursed back to health from birds + snakes to donkeys + kittens. It was a little like living in a zoo + I loved every second! I rode + trained horses competitively in high school. At 16, I qualified for the junior Olympic team in equestrian eventing. I’m now a mom, my own son is 16, and I own my own photography business capturing families + pets spreading joy + gratitude. Rover is a welcome addition to that career. I absolutely LOVE what I do + am thankful to have the opportunity to support myself + my son serving other animal loving families like us. I work remotely Mondays and Fridays. Tuesday through Thursday I’m in the office 8-5pm in King of Prussia. I’m typically available most weekends but can occasionally offer weekday evening bookings. Safety is a priority for me. I aim to keep your pets routine stable and comfortable so we stick with what they know and don’t try new things until trust has been built.
About: I grew up in a household that had many animals, such as a skunk, chickens, ducks, birds, guinea pigs, dogs and cats. I love animals! I am an elementary school teacher that is home for the summer and looking to help others, get some exercise, and generate an extra income. I am a trustworthy, and patient person. I prefer to service your animal in your own space so that I do not disrupt my dog and cats environments.
About: Hello everyone, my name is Kanassanan, you can call me Kate. I grew up with cats and dogs. I’m not afraid of grumpy cats or jumping dogs. I’m currently having one tuxedo cat and a Sheppard mix. While I’m in college I used to walk my friends' dogs. I love to spend time with them. I’m currently working part-time. I would love to spend my time with your pups. My schedule is flexible and I’m looking to have a good time with them. I have experience babysitting overnight with dogs. I can sleep next to them or keep an eye on them to make sure your pups are safe.
About: Hi everyone, my name is Emily and I am excited to partner with Rover to do what I love best; working with all kinds of different animals. I work a full time job and devote my time off watching your furry loved ones. Please feel free to ask me any questions about my pet experience. Thank you and feel free to book with me soon. 🐾 I work a full time job however I accept house sittings and drop in bookings. My weekends are free and my evenings as well after 6pm for a drop in visit and dinner. I have a hour lunch break that I can accept drop ins, feeding and walks. I am pretty basic when it comes to caring for your animal. I follow the directions provided to me by the owner and create a bond with the animal. I want the pet to feel safe and comfortable with me most importantly. Fun time is always added in when we are following the schedule set by the parents. I love to send updates and create a full photo album of there entire booking. It helps create a base relationship with the pet owners seeing their pet relaxed and enjoying their absence.
“Victoria was amazing with my 5 month old puppy, Luka. She walked him even when it was very hot outside but still made sure he got his exercise and outdoor time! She made sure to feed him and give him water, taking care of my pups wellbeing:) I will definitely be rebooking for future walks!!”

“Autumn did a fantastic with our dogs. She made sure that they spend time outside, ate and gave one of our pups his medications. She even took our pups for a walk to help give them some exercise. Overall this was a great first experience.”

“Richard was amazing with my dog Julio I didn’t have to worry about anything with him or the dog, he was on time very polite and respectful. He took amazing care of my baby and I will definitely be booking him more often”

About: Hi, my name is Todd. I have had dogs since I was a baby. More recently as an adult we've had four dogs over the past 16 years. We currently have two rescues and my wife has fostered doggos for many years so there are always dogs coming and going! I am well experienced with pitbulls and other bully breeds as we owned two amazing pitties who are sadly no longer with us. But I'm also experienced with small dogs as we have a 13-pound poodle-dachshund mix! And I grew up with dachshunds when I was a kid. Thanks for looking and please let me know if you'd like to meet or chat to discuss your pet care needs. I work full time but work remotely as a real estate broker. I often have tours/showings but I am usually not away from home for more than a few hours at a time. I have a masters degree from NYU and my wife is a former attorney, FWIW. We have a suburban home with a nice grassy fenced-in yard. Our two dogs love to host dog friends and have play dates. We always watch the dogs to make sure they are getting along well and not playing too roughly with each other. I am fortunate to work from home so I can almost always make time to get the dogs outside in addition to meeting my own needs and the needs of my dogs/family. I always prefer to meet the dog/dogs and the owner (or they are welcome to do a meet and greet at my house if they are staying with me). It's crucial to make sure everyone understands the expectations and also ensure the dogs all get along. We will only pursue if everyone has a clear understanding of the expectations and is comfortable that it's a good fit for all parties/dogs.

About: I have experience with a plethora of different animals. My experience ranges from horses, sheep, dogs, cats, ducks, mice. I can do it all. I recently graduated with an animal science degree, and I work at Havertown Animal Hospital as a veterinary technician. I have some flexibility outside of work hours and on weekends. My diverse experiences and adaptability have shaped me into a trustworthy, hard working individual. I have references upon request! I have time during mornings and afternoons as well as midday if you’re close by. I do work full time, so I’m very transparent about what I can and can’t do! My Shiba Inu and my Australian Shepherd are my babies. I devote time to give them enriching lives even with my busy schedule. I live in an apartment with a high energy dog so I have to make it work or else she would go stir crazy! I plan to treat your animals with the same love and care I do for my own, as well as the animals I work with. Positive reinforcement is my key to success to build positive relationships with your animals. I want them to be excited to hang out with me so that they feel safe while you’re away.

About: Hey everyone! My name is Michael and I am a nursing student in the Philadelphia area/suburb area that is just looking for flexible part time work. I have cared for several dogs of ranging from puppies to large dogs! I am new to cats but open to helping in any way I can, also in the process of adopting my own! I am very new to this app, just doing my best to stay afloat while studying for school! I finished school after 2:30 most days, so preferably after that time I’m available for any service! I am currently free weekends. I can be flexible if there needs to be an overnight stay with a dog as long as I have some notice! Of course, walks and time to play are a necessity for dogs! I can also provide baths for dogs if need be for the owners.
“Michael is amazing! He goes above and beyond and made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with him dropping in a few times a day. I have never left my dog with someone I didn’t know. He sent pictures during all of his visits and even bought my big guy a new toy which has become his favorite! Michael also took my recycling bins out just to be kind. Truly above and beyond. Thank you for giving my family peace of mind knowing our dog was safe and cared for so we could enjoy vacation!”

About: I’ve been taking care of friends and families animals for about three years now. I’ve dealt with puppy dogs to senior dogs, crazy kittens to calm cats. I love animals and truly see them as a part of the family! 💜 I am super flexible when it comes to my daily schedule. I have been doing pet care independently and decided to rover a shot ! Communication is super important to me, if the pet needs any specific foods, medications, or walking instructions I would contact the owner beforehand to make sure the pet is receiving the best care possible. Or if the client left a note with specific instructions.
About: I grew up surrounded by furry friends in rural NH, and have also worked as a volunteer for the NH SPCA. (I also have experience handling and administered medications if needed!). I am currently working M-F until about 4:30 most days. I have some flexibility! Before/After work and on my lunch break. Reach out and we can make something that works for you! I feel comfortable with pets of all shapes and sizes, I've had large and small dogs. Well versed with nervous temperament dogs, as that's what I grew up with.

About: I have been caring for my grandparents dogs while they go on vacation ever since I was 10, always making sure they were walked, fed, and kept in clean conditions. Caring for animals is never about just getting the job done for me, I genuinely love animals of all kind and enjoy interacting with them and getting to know each pets personality. In the absence of pets of my own, I have even taken to befriending crows, squirrels, chipmunks, and more in my backyard so that I still get to engage with animals daily. I currently only work part time on certain days, allowing me full freedom to care for your animals as often as needed to ensure they do not get lonely or bored while you are away! I always make sure the animals basic needs are met—food, water, and physical/mental stimulation—but also go above and beyond to make the animal feel loved and less anxious while their families are away.
“Dana was extremely considerate and thoughtful of our cats. She communicated well and detailed her visits along with pictures. Our diabetic cat got all his insulin with no issues which was a major relief, first time using rover was wonderful thanks to Dana.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Newtown Square
Mary was great! I received 2 photos of Brody on his walk as well as updates on his feeding and potty break. Mary is very trustworthy and flexible with time. My dog was so excited to see her and go for a walk. Will definitely be booking with Mary again. Highly recommend!!

Emma was wonderful with Benny while we were away. She was very reliable, kept me updated every day, and paid close attention to his food, water, and overall behavior. I really appreciated how thoughtful and communicative she was, especially since Benny can be a little cautious with new people. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was checking on him every day. I would definitely recommend Emma and would be happy to book with her again!

Laura was absolutely wonderful! She was super communicative, and made the entire experience seamless. She sent photos during the visit, took my dog on a nice walk, and was incredibly kind and friendly throughout. It gave me great peace of mind knowing everything was handled so well. Fantastic experience, I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her! 🐾

Amber aka my dog whisper! She's amazing with my pups. They love her and listens to her and ignores my asks lol. Amber far exceed her job expectations in that when my cat went missing less than a week Amber had started watching my pups. Amber immediately contacted her friend to create a missing cat flyer for me. She still ask the status of missing cat. It's rare to find kindness in a person you just met in less than a week. I highly recommend Amber!! You can trust Amber to love and take care of your fur babies as if they are her own fur babies.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Newtown Square is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 9,192 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Newtown Square. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Newtown Square choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
